    I would say that entirely depends on how it’s worded. This was a parody of another hashtag that was being used sarcastically. I would not call that hate speech in any way. I’m sorry, but “killallmen” is clearly not meant the way the hate speech being allowed on Twitter is meant now. There’s a world of difference. It’s not even comparable.

      So your original question was “What is left wing hate speech?”

      Regardless of whether it’s comparable or as prevalent as right wing hate speech should be moot. You were provided examples and I showed an instance of it actually occurring.

      Again. Not defending or opposing one side or the other nor commenting or implying some frequency or severity of posts.
